For the price of $10, I saw 21 Savage. Yet, short and simple is how to describe 21 Savage’s performance in Goldstein Auditorium for Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity’s State of Emergency concert. 21 Savage performed music from his recent collection, and although his music has earned him a huge fan base, his performance falls short. The rising artist seemed like he was there to play a few songs and get off the stage as he barely interacted with his audience, failing to produce the hype the fraternity’s previous concerts brought.

Amber Rose discussed empowerment and body positivity at the Women of Distinction ceremony this week.

After reporting on the unrest in Ferguson, Missouri, Marc Lamont Hill was left with a graphic image of teenager Michael Brown’s dead body.

On Aug. 9, 2014, police and authorities abandoned Brown for four and a half fours, Hill said neighbors told him. It was 95 degrees outside, Hill added, and children attempted to protect Brown’s body with a sheet, but it was too short to cover both his feet and head.

Joyelle Nicole opened for the multi-talented star, who spread his humor in Goldstein Auditorium on March 31.

Syracuse University students gathered to watch stand-up comedian Hannibal Buress perform in Goldstein Auditorium on March 31.

Actor, comedian, and writer Anthony Anderson visited Syracuse University to speak about hit TV show "Black-ish" and his upcoming movie, BARBERSHOP: The Next Cut, premiering in theaters on April 15, 2016.

Creations Dance Company performed for an audience of over 200, expressing themselves on topics such as suicide and addiction, which are considered "taboo" by today's standards.

The dancers shifted through poses, their bodies cast in darkness. Then the lights flashed on, and the show began.

From darkness into light. This was the driving idea behind the Creations Dance Company annual show “The Unspoken,” which also featured a special performance by the Outlaws Dance Troupe. The show focused on removing the stigma surrounding taboo subjects by stimulating helpful and informative discussions.
